‘No Paintbrushes’ – Abstract Painting with Marie Wilkinson
This is a fun and colourful freeform abstract painting workshop using no plastic items for Plastic Free July.
Marie Wilkinson, a visual artist, will teach you what she has coined ‘The Freedom Technique’ of applying paint to canvas.
The tools will be upcycled items, such as bottle top lids, cut-up cardboard, and knitting needles. Including items from nature, such as leaves, gum nuts, and sea sponges. Not a paintbrush in sight!
You don’t need to have any experience in painting because this freeform abstract art workshop has no rules and no such thing as a mistake. You will be able to express colour on canvas in any way that suits you in the moment. You can also use your fingers. It is an intuitive process rather than a thinking process. It is as easy as child’s play.
Suitable for Adults and Youth 16+
